Why Aren't My Kids Hyper After Binging On Sugar?

As some commenters noted, it is possible that ALL the children were hyper due to the presence of artificial sweeteners in the "control" group, which is why scientists didn't note a difference. But then, I for one would much rather have tons of sugar in the diet than even a little artificial sweetener. Why parents erroneously *did* probably does have more to do with expectations.
